Hospice facility to prohibit assistance in dying

Hospice facility to prohibit assistance in dying | The Kingston Whig-Standard:
Way to go Canada!!

Advocates for medical assistance in dying are taking aim at a policy that would prohibit the practice at the coming Hospice Kingston.The hospice, which is currently about halfway into a $7.8-million fundraising campaign to build a new 10-bed facility, has declared that when the new palliative care facility is opened, it will not permit medical assistance in death in the facility.

The position of the Canadian Association of Palliative Care and Hospice Palliative Care Ontario is to neither hasten or postpone death.
